Birding Cape May Point - Saturday, March 23rd, 2013

Cold and breezy for spring time but still a few ducks around which included Green-winged Teal, Gadwall, Mallard, Black, Buffleheads, Lesser Scaup, Hooded Mergansers, Ruddy, and 2 Pied-billed Grebes. Overhead we had both vultures, a Bald Eagle, and a Cooper's Hawk. Warblers consisted of a couple of Yellow-rumps, and an interesting 1st year female Pine Warbler. Karl Lukens, Kathy & Roger Horn, Steve Weis, and Chris Marks.
